EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSISTANCE
This is a system in addition to ABS
which helps reduce the vehicle
stopping distances.
Operating principle
The system detects an emergency
braking situation by means of a
sensor which measures the speed
with which the brake pedal is
depressed. When emergency
braking is detected, braking
assistance instantly reaches its
maximum power and allows ABS
regulation to be reached as quickly
as possible.
ABS braking is maintained as long
as the brake pedal is not released.
Hazard warning lights
These may light up in the event of
rapid deceleration.
This function is an
additional aid in the event
of critical driving
conditions to allow the
behaviour of the vehicle to be
adapted to the driving conditions.
However, the function does not
take the place of the driver. It does
not increase the vehicle's
limitations and should not
encourage you to drive more
quickly.
It can, thus, under no
circumstances replace the
vigilance or responsibility of the
driver when manoeuvring the
vehicle (the driver must always be
aware of sudden incidents which
may occur when driving).
